(First topic)Edit

I second that Vs. Dr. Mario should be merged with this. The same should be done with Vs. Super Mario Bros.   3D, <Zoidberg>WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!</Zoidberg>  

Infact, I tihnk the whole "Vs Series" games should be merged with their parents game. They are just arcade ports with a few tweaks to the difficulty. --Blitzwing 17:26, 27 February 2008 (EST)

Released Date for GB Version on the 3DS Virtual Console?Edit

Is the Dr. Mario Game Boy version on the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console is Japan-only or they didn't announce the outer regions yet? DigiPen92 13:22, 17 November 2011 (EST)

Beta Elements?Edit

A beta release was found under the name Virus, so shouldn´t we start a beta element section?--  Goombs (talk) 19:39, 4 February 2013 (EST)

PlayChoice-10 release dateEdit

It's been pointed out on several occasions that Masumi Akagi's book (or at least, that edition of it) is unreliable, so let's find a better source for a release date. Does anyone know when one of these entered circulation? It indicates that the PlayChoice Dr. Mario, along with TMNT II, Yo! Noid, Nintendo World Cup, Rad Racer II, Solar Jetman, and Mega Man 3 were released at around the same time. I believe advertisements can be seen at least by June or July, which seems to discredit the September date. If the earliest mention of one of those flyers can be found, that should be a much better candidate for the general release date of the PlayChoice Dr. Mario.

Split VS. Dr. MarioEdit

  This talk page proposal has already been settled. Please do not edit this section or its subsections. If you wish to discuss the article, please do so in a new section below the proposal.

Split 8-0
With many other enhanced ports being split recently, I see no harm splitting this too. It has got quite a few differences that I think there could be a split. VS. Super Mario Bros., VS. Wrecking Crew and VS. Golf are all also split too (I know VS. Pinball ain't split, but I don't even think Pinball should have an article, but that's for another proposal). I'm pretty sure the VS. series of NES ports are intended to be different, harder versions, anyway.
